Cybersecurity researchers have identified critical vulnerabilities within the third-party plugin ecosystem for OpenAI ChatGPT, shedding light on potential avenues for threat actors to exploit and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data. Recent findings from Salt Labs highlight security flaws within the ChatGPT platform itself and its accompanying plugin infrastructure, posing significant risks to user privacy and data integrity.
The research underscores that while third-party plugins are intended to augment ChatGPT's capabilities, they also introduce new attack surfaces that malicious actors could leverage. By exploiting these vulnerabilities, attackers could clandestinely install harmful plugins without user consent, opening the door to account takeovers and unauthorized data access on platforms like GitHub and other third-party websites.
